SEO Services

SEO and AI search services in Logan & Cache Valley, Utah.

Vient is an independent SEO company based in Logan, Utah. I'm Caden, the person who does the work, and I help small businesses across Cache Valley get found on Google and in AI answers like ChatGPT. That means local SEO, technical audits, and answer engine optimization, with tracking down to whether ChatGPT names you.

What our SEO includes

Everything that helps the right people find you on Google, and nothing that does not.

Local SEO & Google Business Profile

We optimize your Google Business Profile, local listings, and on-page signals so you show up when nearby customers search for what you do.

Local listings & citations

Consistent name, address, and phone across Google, Apple Maps, and the directories that matter, so search engines and AI answers trust who you are and where you serve.

AI answer optimization (AEO)

We get your business named when someone asks ChatGPT, Perplexity, or Google AI Overviews for a local recommendation, then track whether those answers actually cite you.

Technical SEO audits

We find and fix the things quietly holding your site back: crawl issues, broken links, slow pages, missing tags, and thin or duplicate content.

On-page optimization

Titles, headings, meta descriptions, internal links, and content aimed at the terms your customers actually type into Google.

Structured data & schema

LocalBusiness, FAQ, and review schema so search engines understand your business and can show rich results.

Core Web Vitals & speed

A fast site ranks better and converts better. We tune loading, layout stability, and mobile performance.

Tracking & reporting

Search Console and analytics set up properly, plus monthly checks on whether the AI answer engines name you, so you see real positions, clicks, and citations.

Answer engine optimization

Show up when customers ask AI for a recommendation

More people skip the results page and just ask ChatGPT, Perplexity, or Google's AI overview for a recommendation. Almost no local business is set up for it yet, so getting named is still wide open. One pest-control site we launched this summer was fielding calls a day from customers who found it through ChatGPT within a month of going live. That gap is the opening, and getting in early is cheap.

The work overlaps with local SEO, so we build it into the same service. AI answers get pulled from your website, your Google Business Profile, and third-party listings, then cross-checked for agreement. One mismatched phone number is enough for the model to skip you and name a safer answer. We make those sources line up, add the schema and plain-language answers these systems read, and publish an llms.txt that tells them what you do and where you work.

Then we track it. Every month we check whether ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google's AI actually name your business for the questions your customers ask, so you can see it working instead of taking it on faith. Our guide on how to check if ChatGPT recommends your business walks through that check, if you want to run it yourself.

The full checklist, including the parts you can do yourself for free, is in our guide on how to get your business recommended by ChatGPT.

Proof

A local business we got ranking

We built and optimized the website for Cub River, an age-restricted retail client near the Utah-Idaho line. Today the site ranks on the first page of Google for its own name and shows up near the top of the regional searches its customers actually use.

That did not happen by accident. It came from a fast, well-structured site, LocalBusiness schema, on-page content aimed at what people actually search, and Google Business Profile work, the same playbook we would run for your business. You can read the full build log to see exactly how it was done.

How it works

1

Audit

We pull your Search Console data, crawl the site, and map where you rank today versus where the opportunity is.

2

Fix & optimize

We ship the technical fixes, on-page changes, local signals, and schema, prioritizing the ones that move rankings fastest.

3

Track & refine

We watch the query positions in Search Console and keep tuning. SEO is a compounding effort, not a one-time switch.

Work with a local, not a faceless agency

I am Caden Sorenson, the person who does the work. Based in Logan with 15+ years building software, I take on a small number of local clients so I can actually move the needle, and I document what I do. Hiring a big SEO agency or marketing company gets you an account manager and a monthly report full of vanity metrics. Here you get the person doing the work.

Frequently asked questions

Are you an SEO company in Logan, Utah?
Yes. Vient is an independent SEO company based in Logan, and I, Caden, do the work myself, so there's no account manager in between. We work with businesses across Cache Valley, including Logan, North Logan, Hyde Park, Smithfield, Providence, Hyrum, Richmond, and Preston, Idaho. Local SEO is the core of it: your Google Business Profile, local listings, and on-page content, so you show up for nearby searches. To be straight about the proof, our SEO results so far come from the Cub River build near the Utah-Idaho line, covered in the case study on this page, not from Logan rankings.
Do you offer a free SEO check?
Yes. Send your business name and your website or Google listing through the contact form, and I'll check your Google Business Profile, your site basics, and whether ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews name you for one local search. I do it by hand and email what I found within 2 business days. There's no obligation, and if the free fixes are enough, I'll tell you that.
Can you get my business to show up in ChatGPT and AI search?
Yes. That is answer engine optimization, and we build it into our SEO. Tools like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews recommend businesses whose website, Google Business Profile, and listings all agree, so we make those consistent, add the schema and plain answers the models read, publish an llms.txt, and then track whether they name you. It runs on the same timeline as local SEO: first movement in weeks, steady presence over a few months.
How long does SEO take to work?
It depends on your starting point and competition, but local SEO usually shows movement in the first one to three months, with bigger gains compounding over six-plus months. We track query positions in Google Search Console so you can see progress, not just take our word for it.
Can you prove SEO actually works?
We would rather show than tell. A retail client site we built and optimized now ranks on the first page of Google for its own name and near the top of the regional searches its customers actually use. Every project on this site also has a build log documenting exactly what we did.
Do I need a new website, or can you improve my current one?
Often we can improve what you have. If your site is fixable, we do technical and on-page SEO on it directly. If it is stuck in a slow page builder that limits SEO, a redesign onto a fast, owned stack is usually the better long-term move, and we handle that too.
How much do SEO services cost?
Start with the free visibility check: I look at your Google listing, your site, and whether AI search names you, and you pay nothing. Ongoing local SEO runs $300 a month on our Managed plan: keyword strategy, content, Google Business Profile work, rank tracking, and a monthly report and call. A one-time audit and cleanup is quoted on its own. See the pricing page for the full breakdown, or tell us your goals on the contact page.
